Re: Asus One and Back|Track

Did you have a particular model in mind? Your best bet is to pick a model of laptop and then Google it to find out how well its supported in Linux. In particular, check what type of wireless card, sound card and video card it has and check for information about how well that particular hardware is supported in Linux. Look for BackTrack specific stuff as well, but general Linux compatibility information will usually do in a pinch to determine whether your chosen model will be workable

Capitalisation is important. It's the difference between "Helping your brother Jack off a horse" and "Helping your brother jack off a horse".

Re: Asus One and Back|Track

It should be noted that bt4 also works well on the Acer Aspire One ZG5 model with ab 8gb usb stick. I would assume almost any netbook will work to some degree, but certain features may not work out of the box, due to driver issues. Notable in this regard are the SD cards, some network devices such as onboard wifi, and bluetooth. Also some cameras may not work until you settle driver issues. These issues vary from one device/model to another. I always try out the cd/dvd version first, then decide what my install media will be based on the performance of that, so your mileage may vary here.
